I've been aware of One Piece since high school but I've never read or seen anything from the manga or anime and when I heard James say he's a rubber boy I had the same reaction as Mason 😮. I mean none of the pictures I saw of One Piece shows him stretching 😂😅
Them calling Luffy a "Gumby Guy" is especially funny since its called the Gum Gum fruit. Out of all the things I would have expected them to reference Mr Fantastic 😂
"...which, to be clear, is not a dish that exists in Australia." Is maybe one of the funniest things Maso has ever said. The man almost made me spit out my coffee!
As a huge OP fan, I can’t believe James knew this whole time, hit like a bricks when I heard them talk OPLA. Idk if mason would ever watch/read the series, but the jokes would be INSANE if they did a vid on it😂
So funny story: I started listening to this new episode and put in my wireless earbuds, but when the earbuds connected, they prompted my music player app to auto-resume its last track, which just happened to be the Weekly Planet commentary for Revenge of the Sith. It interrupted the theme song and I spent the next 5 minutes very confused, listening to the guys talk over the end credits for Ep III. I thought at first the episode was uploaded with a broken edit until the guys thanked everyone for sitting thru movie with them.
I like how James's schoolteacher came out when it came to discussing research in Antarctica. I think its time for a spinoff channel talking about geopolitical issues.
I'm glad you guys have been able to watch the ninja turtles movie, I was never a big fan as a kid but I really loved this movie. What a year for animated movies, puss in boots 2, super mario, spider verse 2, TMNT. Great year so far
Do you watch "foreign" cinema? If not, consider it. Many, if not most, of the best animated projects I've experienced are from countries outside the United States. All the best.
Nicole Maines who played Dreamer on Supergirl has written for the character a few times now in comics. As well as writing a whole graphic novel centered on the character that's due to release soon
I just watched Mutant Mayhem last night, perfect timing All my problems with the movie is as an adult it’s embarrassing to think I was just as dorky as the turtles without the upside of being a ninja turtle.
I remember Mason saying back in the day that the best part of the X-Men was when a mutant with “shit” powers (like toad) figured out creative ways to use his powers and become a genuine threat. Gumby guy sounds like should be right up his alley.
I hope I run into James specifically at his breaking point and he goes on one of his classic rants that turns into a speech about how much he loves being a dad. And then Mason ambushes me with half a brick
@SaulGMV @ 1:11, but was the revelation that James didn't like Kung Fu Hustle? Credibility wounded, he says One Piece powerups remind him of it? Huh? Stephen's a comic quintuple threat all-hat stacker champion of Hong Kong cinema, ala Jackie and Sammo... @mrsundaymovies you have a whole filmography to enjoy, and the drinking game is every time Stephen pulls a goofy close-up face. You'll be hammered. 🍻
If I had a dollar for every time a comic book adaptation featured a giant rat making out with a giant bug; I’d have have two dollars. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice.
I wish you guys were right about most people being on the side of the writer's and actor's but I'm not so sure they are. Every time I look at the comment section of posts relating to this it's really scary how much people are detached from reality have a insane amount of hatred towards these working people.
It depends on what sort of communities you look at, there are certainly a fair number of places that are overwhelmingly supporting the strike. Which isn't to undercut that unfortunately yes, especially in the US social and class stratification and ostracization has been employed with great effect to foster an undercurrent of simmering hatred for one another among the working class. It's the easiest way capitalists can keep control; just convince the workers that if they work hard enough and don't rock the boat at all, one day they too can become a corporate executive who never does anything but constantly succeeds anyway. But hey, that doesn't mean we become defeatist about it or anything. Progress is made by continuing to fight even in the face of overwhelming odds.
@@RecRoomPlays absolutely, not to be too intense about things but this is why I regularly advocate for a revolution here in the states. I was just wanting to communicate to them how much work still needs to be done in regards to having the general public understand the situation.
Yeah that’s because they’re the loudest. The stupid usually are. Around 1000 people probably commented on the video. That’s not a great sample size. A study showed around 72% of people support the writers and 67% for the actors. Comment sections again are the most vocal of a community, usually the toxic side of the argument.
Some other actors who wrote about characters they played include Danny Devito, Paul Dano, the girl who played Dreamer on Supergirl and they guy who played Batwing on Batwoman. Danny Devito wrote a wierd self-insert fan fic where his versions of Penguin married Michelle Phifer's Catwoman and saved the world from Covid. Paul Dano wrote a really good (and absurdly unique) origin story for his version of the Riddler. The guy who played Batwing wrote a small 8 or so page story that, honestly, wasnt especially notable. Then the girl who played Dreamer wrote various stories based on the character including an upcoming Graphic novel. Another one, which admittedly is a bit of a stretch, is Keanu Reeves cowrote Brzrkr. This is a stretch because, obviously, it hasnt been adapted yet. However, both a film and an anime series have been ordered. And, at least in the film, Kenau Reeves will play the lead character.
I replayed it so many time when Mason first hears that Luffy is a rubber boy! Hahha its so damn funny. I was genually surprised with him since i have never seen/read the manga before. Always see the promotions and know what one piece is but truly never knew that the main guy had any powers 😅😂😂😂😂 I love Mason 1:09:53
11:45 Josh Revell on RUclips did a video on the true story of the driver from the Gran Turismo film... Little in terms of side by side so you'll need to see the film to understand where it differs.
Danny Devito wrote a penguin comic in 2021. It’s not in the Burtonverse, and it’s kinda weird. Penguin and Catwoman are in a romantic relationship and they steal a bunch of vaccines to redistribute around the world. The art is by Dan Mora, so that’s great.
@@mundanepants It kinda was like that lol. The story was was clunky and confusing imo. However the whole “this is literally Danny Devito writing his Catwoman COVID self insert fanfic” vibe combined with the Dan Mora art did make it amusing.
My one complaint was using bebop and rock steady too soon. Using the lesser known mutants was great and BandR are great but together it's two groups pushing for screen time that ultimately make both feel like they are fighting for time.
The animation and grubbiness of the Ninja Turtles movie made my 5 year old "feel sick" I think it was a combination of the super buttery popcorn she ate, plus super fly was pretty intense at times ahah
as the premier comic book adaptation podcast, I think you legally do have to cover One Piece next week because it's the second best-selling comic series ever (after Superman, above Batman)
@MattAlbie I really don't think it even matters because everyone's entitled to their own opinion. If he thinks Batman and Robin is better than The Dark Knight then he's allowed to.
8:00 follow up question? What in gods name were they making a Spiderwick Chronicles show for? Like what's the market for this niche ya novel series stuff?
24:57 did not expect you guys to bring up CM Punk and his ongoing turmoil in the wrestling world. That deserves an entire podcast episode of its own. It's far more engaging than any storyline aew has ever put on TV.
A while ago there was a series where a bunch of people who were good at gran tourismo competed to be a race car driver for a professional team. I don't think the winner did very well I didn't hear anything anyway. I think that's how the film is based on a true story
It pisses me off to no end that even though they've completely finished with Ironheart, they've shelved it for no reason. And also that, even BEFORE the strike, Disney went completely radio silent on Blade. These are two shows that I've really been edging for because not only do I love both of these characters, but Marvel really could focus a little more on their Black superheroes. Yes, I know War Machine is Black, but he'll only ever really be a side character. He's never going to be allowed to be a Tony Stark level Avenger. And Falcon is still living under the shadow of Captain America. On top of that, Secret Invasion completely cut the knees out from under Nick Fury. So Blade and Ironheart where characters that we desperately needed in this universe and they're going to go all but ignored for the foreseeable future. Bulshit. At least we still have Black Panther...until Disney finds a way to screw that as well.
I agree with you but I’m glad they scrapped Iron Heart. I hope that Falcon gets a power up, without that I feel like there is no way it works. I’m most eager for the squadron Supreme, Nighthawk is my favorite Marvel character. The current era where Kyle Richmond is basically Black Batman. I know it is a long shot but that would make an amazing solo movie
i think were collectively over "cancelling" unless theyre literally criminals, or has everyone BUT james gunn NEVER said a slur in their lives (gimme a breaK)
*James Gunn getting in trouble for dumb shit he posted back in the 2010s* Me: Hey, I remember this one, it’s a classic Some Stupid Loser: What're you talking about? This is brand new.
“He’s like a Gumby guy”
Honestly love the referencing of Gumby, he doesn’t get as much love as he deserves
Mason's complete incredulity that one of most popular anime of all time is and has always been about a Gumby pirate is such a highlight lol
I've been aware of One Piece since high school but I've never read or seen anything from the manga or anime and when I heard James say he's a rubber boy I had the same reaction as Mason 😮. I mean none of the pictures I saw of One Piece shows him stretching 😂😅
For actors who wrote comics of their characters, Paul dano wrote riddler year one which is very odd thing to think about
Yup and I heard good things about it! Also the new Steel series is written by the voice actor for Steel in the animated universe
That’s the big one.
Just started the video so idk if this is covered or not but Danny devito also wrote a penguin one shot I think
@@chowderman8888 He's Star Trek's Worf
How is it odd since he's a fan of the comics?
Them calling Luffy a "Gumby Guy" is especially funny since its called the Gum Gum fruit. Out of all the things I would have expected them to reference Mr Fantastic 😂
Or Ms Marvel, Plastic Man, or Elongated Man.
Smh fake fans/s
"...which, to be clear, is not a dish that exists in Australia." Is maybe one of the funniest things Maso has ever said. The man almost made me spit out my coffee!
Don’t feel too bad for him, after all Batman famously hates Gunns
Shots fired
@@Michael2tyeah guns are known to do that
That was a loaded comment
I love you guys just want to add that. Make me feel fully cocked and ready to go over that wall
A Gunn once stared at The Batman. But when The Batman stared back, the Gunn blinked.
As a huge OP fan, I can’t believe James knew this whole time, hit like a bricks when I heard them talk OPLA. Idk if mason would ever watch/read the series, but the jokes would be INSANE if they did a vid on it😂
He's got a straw hat! And he runs in!
I think they both would legit be into it, it's a lot of fun with great action and humor

I thought you were going to spin this into a Blue Harvest on account of blue tooth and the reference to Star Wars, but respect the restraint.
😂 that is a funny story ngl
31:40
Contextualizing the Burton Batmen as "goth-camp" makes my childhood obsession with them even more sensible. I was always cool.
RIP Arleen Sorkin... and at such a young age. Your work was amazing. My condolences to all those impacted by her loss. All the best.
James Gunn being almost completely accurate in the past about the dubious quality of Batman movies is exactly why he’s in the right job now.
Anthony "C-3P0" Daniels wrote a Threepio comic for Dark Horse Comics. It was called "Star Wars - The Protocol Offensive."
Yea time with the lads love it
I love a couple bevvies with the boys
Regarding actors writing comics of their characters: Paul Dano said in an interview with Variety that he is currently writing a Riddler comic.
it came out! and it's pretty good!
Paul Dano wrote an origin comic for his riddler. It’s amazing
I like how James's schoolteacher came out when it came to discussing research in Antarctica. I think its time for a spinoff channel talking about geopolitical issues.
I love all the ads Razors and Watches. I actually enjoyed the way it felt like an actual conversation
Why is One Piece not in the title? I don't understand why Mason is resisting the franchise that was made for him
Too gumby
I'm glad you guys have been able to watch the ninja turtles movie, I was never a big fan as a kid but I really loved this movie. What a year for animated movies, puss in boots 2, super mario, spider verse 2, TMNT. Great year so far

fucking hell that Maso laugh at Adam Driver joke were raw as fuck 🤣😂
I just watched Mutant Mayhem last night, perfect timing
All my problems with the movie is as an adult it’s embarrassing to think I was just as dorky as the turtles without the upside of being a ninja turtle.
Commie!
"We're sorry we're not as worldly as people who live only in America" is such an amazingly cutting and satisfying comeback
I remember Mason saying back in the day that the best part of the X-Men was when a mutant with “shit” powers (like toad) figured out creative ways to use his powers and become a genuine threat. Gumby guy sounds like should be right up his alley.
Its weekly planet tiiiiiiime
Y'know what Filoni horribly misunderstanding his own characters does make him a pretty good George Lucas stand in.
My only complaint about the TMNT movie is Bebop and Rocksteady are now good guys, but they can easily change sides again when Shredder shows up
Adam Strider and John Whip 🤣👏🏽 these boys have got me this episode
I hope I run into James specifically at his breaking point and he goes on one of his classic rants that turns into a speech about how much he loves being a dad.

My one complaint was using bebop and rock steady too soon. Using the lesser known mutants was great and BandR are great but together it's two groups pushing for screen time that ultimately make both feel like they are fighting for time.
Also limits how they can use Bebop and Rocksteady in the future.
